The war for TK. The President of the Supreme Administrative Court issued a statement

I refer with great concern to the events that took place in the Constitutional Tribunal (...), especially the presence of the Police around its headquarters and preventing its President and Vice-President from entering the Tribunal - wrote Chlebny in a published statement.

According to the President of the Supreme Administrative Court, these events were unprecedented and raise fundamental concerns as to their compliance with the fundamental principles of the rule of law.

Chlebny emphasized that rebuilding public trust and the authority of the Tribunal requires urgent action. He pointed out that continuing the situation in which the Constitutional Tribunal's judgments are not published and the composition and authorities of the Tribunal are questioned in the public debate undermines citizens' trust in the state.

According to the president of the Supreme Administrative Court, it is necessary to achieve a "real compromise across political divisions" in order to restore the authority and credibility of the Constitutional Tribunal.

As he emphasized, actions taken to resolve the crisis cannot raise doubts as to their legality and should remain consistent with the applicable legal order, in particular with the constitutionally guaranteed independence of the Constitutional Tribunal.

The limits of actions taken by authorities are constitutional principles and respect for human dignity. These limits have been exceeded - said Prof. Breadful.

At the same time, the President of the Supreme Administrative Court appealed for problems related to the functioning of courts and tribunals in Poland to be solved with respect for constitutional principles and ensuring civil rights and freedoms.

What happened in the evening and at night?

On Friday, a break in the activities of the President of the Constitutional Tribunal, Bogdan Święczkowski, and Vice-President Bartłomiej Sochański, was announced, and Anna Korwin-Piotrowska, who has the longest judicial experience, was appointed as the person in charge of the Tribunal's work. Then, there were demonstrations and police intervention around the Constitutional Tribunal's headquarters, and President Karol Nawrocki interrupted his foreign visit and returned to the country, convening consultations with the participation of parliamentary forces. State authorities and participants in the dispute present different assessments of the legality of the actions taken by the Tribunal.
